“sisters of the moon”
by fleetwood mac from 1979’s “tusk”
written by stevie nicks

intro : Am F Am

verse 1 :

Am F
intense silence

Am
as she walked in the room

F
her black robes trailing

Am
sister of the moon

Am F
and a black widow spider makes

Am
more sound than she

F
and black moons in those eyes of hers

Am
made more sense to me

Am F
heavy persuasion

Am
it was hard to breathe

F
she was dark at the top of the stairs

Am ( no3rd ) G ( no3rd ) E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd )
and she called to me

G ( no3rd ) E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd ) E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd ) G ( no3rd ) Am ( no3rd )

( repeat progression from 1st verse )
and so i followed
as friends often do
i cared not for love , nor money
i think she knew
the people , they love her
and still they are the most cruel

she asked me
be my sister , sister of the moon

F
some call her sister of the moon

G Am
some say illusions are her game

F
they like to wrap her in velvet

G
does anyone know her name?

four times : Am ( no3rd ) G ( no3rd ) E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd ) E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd )
G ( no3rd ) Am ( no3rd )

Am ( no3rd ) G ( no3rd ) E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd )
so we make our choices

E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd ) G ( no3rd ) Am ( no3rd )
when there is no choice

G ( no3rd ) E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd )
we listen to their voices ,

E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd ) G ( no3rd ) Am ( no3rd )
but ignoring our own voice .

repeat and fade : Am ( no3rd ) G ( no3rd ) E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd ) E ( no3rd ) F ( no3rd ) G ( no3rd )
Am ( no3rd )
